The Isa Khan Tomb complex is a walled area adjacent to Humayun’s Tomb in New Delhi, India, and is the resting place of Isa Khan Niazi, a noble of influence at the court of two rulers of the Suri dynasty, Sher Shah Suri and his successor Islam Shah Suri, who fought the Mughal Empire.
The tomb of Isa Khan, positioned within an enclosed octagonal garden, was built during his lifetime between 1547 and 1548. It later served as a burial place for his entire family.
Isa Khan’s Tomb is beautifully adorned with varnished tiles, ornate awnings, lattice windows and ample verandahs held up by pillars. The roof containing the huge central dome is crowned with an inverted lotus. On the western side of the tomb lies an impressive mosque in red sandstone, known as Isa Khan's Mosque.
Isa Khan's Tomb is a wonderful piece of architectural finesse, and one of the best and earliest examples of sunken garden style tombs in India.

A labyrinth of about a thousand passageways, the Bhool Bhulaiya at Bada Imambara in Lucknow, has intrigued traveler as well as architects for the last two hundred years. The fourth Nawab, Asaf-Ud-Daula,commissioned the building during the drought year of 1784 AD to help the poor make a living. However, from the time it was finished, it became a symbol of pride and grandeur of Lucknow.
But what does the word ‘Bhool Bhulaiya’ mean? It’s not an easy word to translate, and it sort of means ‘a place where you can forget directions and paths and get lost’! :) .
The ingenious architect decided to work on reducing the weight of the ceiling by making it hollow - and that exactly how the Bhool Bhulaiya was born! Unlike the buildings to today, much pain was taken to design even this part of the building as beautifully as any other part of the Imambada. The result is a labyrinth of interconnected passageways and doors. There are about a thousand such passageways and most of them lead you nowhere but another passage. If you get into the labyrinth, it is quite easy to get lost and might take a while before you manage to come out. Many of these passageways open into windows which give you great views outside and some also take you up on the ceiling.
